EV Challenges In Italy: Stellantis' 500e Production Hits A Snag Amid Incentive Delays
Portfolio Pulse from Shivani Kumaresan
Stellantis NV (NYSE:STLA) faced production issues with its electric 500e model in Italy due to delayed government EV incentives, leading to fewer units produced than planned. Despite this, Stellantis' overall vehicle production in Italy increased by 9.6% last year. The Italian government's new plans to support EV purchases with €930 million may boost future sales. STLA shares saw a slight increase of 0.92% to $22.42.
